This week is Mental Health Awareness Week and the theme this year is 'Kindness'
The current pandemic is affecting all of our daily lives and with so much uncertainty and change, this may be a difficult time for children and young people as well as adults.
During this time, it’s particularly important that you support and take care of the mental health of yourself and your children and indeed your whole family. There are lots of things you can do, and additional support is available if you need it.
Here are some links that we have found that may be useful to support you and your family
